WHAT IS SEAFOOD BOIL SAUCE MADE OF
Butter and Chicken stock along with fresh onions, garlic and special mix of seasonings
You can omit the chicken stock if desired, however it will be less healthy as butter does have allot of fats.
But to each there own! Make it as you wish 🙂
HOW TO MAKE SEAFOOD BOIL SAUCE
- You can use all butter or half it as I like to do with the addition of chicken stock
- Then you are going to want to slice some fresh onions and chop some garlic and sauté it in butter alone
- Start with the onions and add the minced garlic in once the onions are soft and cooked well
- Toss in the spices and chicken stock if desired and simmer for 5 mins to serve

SEAFOOD BOIL SAUCE FOR EGGS

WHAT DOES SEAFOOD BOIL SAUCE TASTE LIKE
It is buttery, garlicy sauce that can be made more sweet than spicy or spicy than sweet with hints of salt and lemon juice for a rounded flavor.
My recipe here has a balance of all these flavors. If you want it more sweet, simply add more brown sugar or more spicy add more Cajun or Cayenne pepper to the sauce during cooking it.
